Figure 6 Histographic presentation of the frequency of myeloid dendritic cell (mDC) precursors (BDCA-1), plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) precursors (BDCA-2), tissue-resident DC (fascin), or MIP-3 (cells/0.25 mm2) in atherosclerotic plaques with stable or vulnerable morphology. Significant association of the number of mDC precursors (A), tissue-resident DC (C), or MIP-3 (D) with plaque vulnerability. No significant association between pDC number and plaque morphology was detected (B).
